Healthcare and Care
In healthcare and care services, occupational health protects both professionals and patients. Hospitals, clinics, residential care homes and assistance centres involve direct contact with people, biological materials and high-exposure environments.
The main reference is Legislative Decree 81/2008, especially Title X on biological agents. Safety management requires a structured, continuous and specialist approach.
The main risks include biological agents, accidental needlestick injuries, contact with bodily fluids, patient handling, work-related stress, night shifts and chemical exposure from disinfectants and medicines.
Health assessments in healthcare
The competent physician defines surveillance around the role and the level of exposure.
Vaccination status, infection prevention and the health and risk record are important parts of the system.

Health assessments to evaluate
The competent physician defines examinations around the specific risks of each role. They may include:
- Blood tests: Health status and biological exposure
- Serology: Immunity and contact with infectious agents
- Vaccination status: Coverage such as hepatitis B and tetanus
- Infectious-disease screening: Prevention and early identification
- General medical examination: Overall fitness for the role
- Musculoskeletal assessment: Patient handling and manual tasks
- Work-related stress assessment: Psychophysical load and shifts
- Specialist checks: Assessments based on the role and specific risks
All examinations belong in a personalised health protocol aligned with Legislative Decree 81/2008 and the actual role and workplace.

Specific surveillance and protocols
We build health protocols around the duties and exposure levels of operators.
We support monitoring of infection risk, vaccination status, work organisation and training.
The goal is to protect staff and patients while meeting regulatory responsibilities.
A safe healthcare environment begins with a health-surveillance system that reflects how care is actually delivered.
